Chhan :" Umm what is it ? "
I don't know why but the receptionist seemed shocked ,well i kinda expected it since it happens all the time when someone who came from another world does this type of thing in the novels ,mangas ,manwhas and comics I read
Indeed a newbie who seems to be a teenager speaking that many language must've been a shock
" Ah..ah it's nothing, it's nothing, I've finished the divination and it's all correct Mr Saved "{ Speaking that many language while also being able to wield the sword, if he has any business sense he might become big }
Her tone seems a lot warmer now that she's verified my info
I frowned inside in disappointment
{ Why are most women like this? }
" Now then what should I do ? "
Receptionist :" Please wait for a bit, I'll go and get you your adventurer ID "
With that she left with the paper and went to the other room behind the receiptionist counter and came back out after 2 minutes with a metal tag necklace that soldiers use wear to identify themselves
With a bright smile the receptionist offered me the adventurer tag
" Here's your adventurer ID sir ,you are currently ranked 9th class ,the second lowest rank "
I looked at the ID to confirm that
__________________________
Name : Saved
Age : 17
Swordsman
Rank - 9th class
An adventurer of Ekana's capital guild
__________________________
{Seems legit}(wore the necklace)
" Then can I begin taking quest then? "
" Yes ofcourse, you can take 9th classed request from the low ranked quest board right there "
After turning to the right side of the guild hall that she pointed I saw 3 quest board and saw hundreds of quest paper there much like in the games I played, and immediately went there
The receptionist smiled seeing what she perhaps thought was my eagerness
{ I'll pick the material gathering quests if they are there, no battle for now }
And looking at the quest board of the lowe ranked I saw many types of quest ranging from monster & bandit extermination but those were for 6th classed adventurer, bodyguard duties and some dirty work quest for 7th and 8th classed adventurers and finally quests that were in my area ,material gathering and delivery quest from villagers for 9th and 10th classed adventurers.
"{ They all look easy enough with low risk ,but I should still be on guard in them } "
I then scanned through the quest board and took one out
" I'll take this one "

Being rather nervous about his first time in the guild ,making his ID and taking a quest Chhan apparently didn't notice the gazes directed at him from a party of four 8th classed adventurers called the Wild swords
" Guys did you see that guy he seems to be a newbie ".
Their main fighter a young blond haired swordsman with green eyes and seemed to be in in his middle 20s stated his thoughts while drinking beer
" I know ,and did you guys see his sword, it looks expensive "
Their mage ,a young woman in her late teens with brown hair and brown eyes also stated what she thought based on what she saw with a sly smile
" Seems like a good prey for today "
Their leader who is also their archer ,a burly man with brown hair and green eyes in his late 20s declared with a confident and happy expression
(Sighs)" Are we really doing this again? We're gonna get caught eventually you know ?"
Their assassin a young half elf girl who seems to be the same age as their mage with a wolf haircut that suited her dark violet hair and slim build stated with a tired expression
" Hey just follow your leader Snakeblade "(leader/archer)
" Whatever "(assassin/Snakeblade)
" Ahaha in the end it's you who spends the most in our party Snakeblade "(Richard)
" That's because I work the most in our party Richard ".(Snakeblade)
" Now now focus on the prey ,Leader Balthan look he's leaving "(mage)
" Well aren't you rather Lily "(Balthan/leader)
" Teehe I need money you see "(Lily)
With that their leader smiled and chugged down his beer and stood up
" Well then what are we waiting for? Let's go "

3 hours have passed ,I passed through the city walls with much ease using my adventurer ID which was truly a blessing as it seemed that you to pay 10 coppers to leave as well, I lready asked a some nice people who I met on the road exactly where the raven mountains was and luckily it was not far ,of i followed the road signs and notices properly, it's only about a day's travel on the main roads and half a day's travel using the forest roads
Feeling rather comfortable I kept walking while taking glances at this world's view, the city was amazing and fantastic with it's magical elements, people were actually flying on brooms there but it's natural habitats was also beautiful as I've already confirmed, people outside the city world seems to avoid flying without a group for some reason.
{I'll ask someone about that later}
" Mama look a giant bird "
A 10 year old girl who also travelled on the main road with her family on a bull drawn carriage exclaimed with excitement to her mother
" Hmm? Oh sweetie that's a Galebird "(the mother)
" Looks like it's gonna hunt "(smiles, the father)
Other travellers of the road also looked at the sky
I put the thought of asking someone the reason 'Why people don't fly outside often on their brooms alone 'away before seeing a massive bird fly above me, it looked like an eagle except it was 2 times bigger, and also I saw a group of 5 flying rabits that used their developed ears to fly playing on the sky ,they immediately fled after seeing the eagle
{ The sky outside isn't friendly it seems }(I stated with a helpless smile )
After walking for half a day ,the main road became a little desolate, i took a few turns that seperated from the biggest part of the main road now after all ,the path to the raven mountains was akin to a beautiful grotto made of noting but plants and trees
" Beautiful hmm hmm (i smiled )"
Clk
I stopped briefly and then walked again
Ever since that light evelopedy body few days ago ,my senses have been rather sharpened tos certain degree so I could tell
{ 3 people ,am I being followed? Who are they? Bandits? Kidnapers? Organ traders? }
I started to panick as various dark thoughts flooded in my 17 year old mind, i was on high alert ready to draw my sword at any moment
Clk clk
{ I can't take this tension anymore! }
SHIING!!
Drawing my sword in the middle of the green grotto path i turned around and shouted with a panick filled voice
" C..COME OUT !! I KNOW YOU'RE THERE!! "
